My Husband, Warm The Bed

Chapter 71

On the weekend, when Kevin was working in the study, Karen was sitting on the balcony reading.

Although it seemed very boring, Karen liked this kind of peaceful days very much. Time had passed by peacefully.

Today, Kevin suddenly proposed to go for a walk. Was he trying to apologize for what happened last night?

Regardless of his intentions, Karen would just assume that he was thinking this way. She forced a smile and said, "I have an appointment with someone at noon. Can I go out with you later?"

"Okay." Kevin nodded and did not say anything else. Then he turned to look out of the window.

Watching his lonely figure, Karen suddenly can't bear to see him like that and added, "I just need to say a few things to that person. It won't take much time."

Karen promised to meet Kristine. The purpose of Karen's meeting with Kristine was to ask about her mother's condition. She didn't want to talk about anything else with Kristine.

Kevin turned around and there was a glimpse of light in his eyes. "Can I go with you after lunch?"

Kevin was asking Karen in a questioning tone, he was waiting for her answer.

Karen was going to see Kristine, who was a part of a very painful memory of her past. Karen was not willing to let Kevin accompany her.

Kevin would be her everything now and also her future. She will deal with everything in the past on her own. She didn't want to drag him in and cause any trouble to him.

But she can't bear to refuse Kevin's request. She was struggling so much because she didn't know how to answer. Then she heard Kevin say, "Go and wash up. I'll go out first and wait for you for lunch."

He came over, picked Momo up, and went to the living room. When he put Momo on the sofa, he stared at Momo with an unfriendly gaze.

"Woof, woof, woof..." Momo was very intelligent. It could feel Kevin's unfriendly gaze, it tried to use its own way to confront him.

After barking for some time, Momo's voice softened. This man was so scary. Just by looking at him, his aura was so overwhelming that Momo did not want to bark anymore.

If Momo could talk, Momo would ask her mother to bring it far away from such a cold man.

"Woo—"

This man was so scary. Why must he look at it with such a horrifying look?

Well, it couldn't fight him, so it ran back to its mother for rescue.

However, as soon as it ran, Kevin reached out and brought it back. Kevin also patted its head like Karen and said. "Be a good girl."

"Woo—"

Momo laid on his stomach and didn't dare to move anymore. It was so afraid that this evil man would break its neck.

Kevin patted its head again. For someone who was a germaphobe like him, he had never been in contact with small animals.

The reason why he accepted this little pet was that it was a very important pet to Karen. She regarded it as her child.

After getting along with it for some time, he found out that small animals were not as annoying as he imagined, sometimes they could be quite cute.

Especially when it made Karen happy.

It was so easy for Momo to make Karen laugh, but he couldn't.

Karen washed up and saw them together. Momo knelt beside Kevin comfortably while Kevin was gently patting its head.

At first, she was worried that Kevin would not accept Momo. But after observing for a while, she realized that Kevin just didn't like to express his feelings. Actually, he likes Momo.

But anyway, Momo was so cute, how could anyone not like Momo?

"Momo, are you playing with Uncle Kevin?" Karen stood beside them and patted Momo's head.

Uncle Kevin?

Kevin was not satisfied with these words. He frowned slightly and said, "Karen, I am your husband."

She didn't know why he suddenly emphasized this again. Karen looked at him with a puzzled face and nodded, "I know."

Was he trying to emphasize that it was right for him to do what he did to her yesterday?

Why was she thinking about what happened last night again? She promised that she will not think about it anymore and that they would live happily together. Karen really felt like slapping herself.

Kevin, "..."

Kevin didn't say a word and Karen brought Momo over and said, "Let's go. I'll get you something to eat. Let's go for a walk when you are done eating."

The lunch was prepared by Aunt Jen. She cooked some simple home-cooked dishes, but it was very tasty and Karen enjoyed eating the dishes.

Kevin did not move his fork, he kept looking over at Karen.

She always had a smile on her face. She always spoke so gently and softly. She gave people an impression where she had been through a lot in her life and she had already made peace with her life, as if nothing can affect her anymore.

"Karen, I will fetch you there later." After some time, Kevin confirmed their plans.

"Okay." Karen answered while eating without looking up.

...

The charity banquet last night had attracted the celebrities in Chatterton Town, but Charlie was chased out instead.

They didn't invite the media, but this matter had soon spread among the high society circle and reached Charlie's ears.

The news didn't actually reach him, instead, he sent someone to ask about it. He was very concerned about what those people thought about him last night.

As soon as he tried to ask about it, he heard the only bad news. People said that he was rude and ill-mannered. Most importantly, he offended Leo Kyle from Rovio Incorporation Inc.

That was the first time Charlie was embarrassed in front of so many people last night.

Anyone would have felt embarrassed in such a scene, not just Charlie.

Charlie got angrier the more he thought about it. It was like a ticking time bomb. He really could explode anytime.

Lincoln ran in and shouted, "Young master, something happened. Something serious happened."

Charlie said in frustration, "What are you panicking about? How serious can it be?"

Lincoln handed the local newspaper Charlie and said, "Look, the Yaleman Family is going to work with Innovative Tech." Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

"Yaleman Family?" Charlie picked up the newspaper and had glanced at it quickly. He said angrily, "What is Chris Yalemen thinking about?"

The Gook family was one of the well-known companies in Beaford City and the Yaleman family was the equal counterpart of the south. In Charlie's opinion, if Rovio incorporation Inc were to choose a partner in business, they will most likely choose from these two families.

Over the years, the Gook family had worked together with the Yaleman Family. The two families were not really friends, but partners.

Why did Chris Yaleman choose Innovative Tech over Gook family's company? Isn't Innovative Tech just a small company?

Was Chris Yaleman trying to show his generosity so that Leo Kyle could see it and he would increase the chance of winning the project with Rovio incorporation Inc?

While he was still trying to figure it out, Charlie's phone rang. Just by listening to this ringtone, he knew that it was a call from his father.

He took a deep breath and answered, "Dad..."

"B*stard, what on earth have you been doing in the Chatterton Town these days? Why are you causing trouble for me? Get back here right now..."

Charlie endured his scoldings in silence.
